"Uncle Cheng, what brings you to the Ning family?" Jiang Ningyuan asked, his handsome face filled with displeasure, and even his tone was not as friendly as before.
“Young Master hasn’t returned since he left the Ning family. It’s been several years now. As the second-in-command of the Dragon Peak Gang, I naturally have to come back to see him and also to check on the boss and his wife,” Cheng Yue said, looking Jiang Ningyuan up and down.
His demeanor changed, even...
They've become emotional.
Joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.
He is now enraged.
What exactly did this kid go through during those years away?
How did the human-machine interface suddenly turn into a human?
When the eldest son and his wife were mentioned, Jiang Ningyuan's expression changed slightly, and even the atmosphere around him changed in an instant.
Cheng Yue and Jiang Yuan were perceptive and immediately noticed the change in Jiang Ningyuan's emotions.
Jiang Yuan raised an eyebrow.
It seems like she's really getting emotional.
It's still quite obvious.
Jiang Yuan was pleased.
Jiang Ningyuan is gradually regaining his composure.
That's a good thing.
"I'm not the only one who knows that the boss and his wife are unconscious. Everyone below knows, even those outside and people from other gangs know," Cheng Yue explained upon seeing this.
He came to the Ning family out of concern, not to make an enemy of this young master, nor to take the blame.
“Young Master, Boss Cheng is right. The news that the Old Madam and Madam are unconscious has spread, and people in the other three cities should have received the news as well,” Li Cheng said.
It wasn't that he was helping Cheng Yue, but rather that the facts were just as Cheng Yue had said.
Only a few people knew about this before, but today it's spread all over the streets.
It's obvious that someone deliberately spread this message to create panic within the Longfeng Gang and to pass on information to those who already harbor disloyal intentions.
The news that their leader is unconscious is true; if they want to make a move, now is the best opportunity.
He originally intended to tell Jiang Ningyuan about this, but unexpectedly, Cheng Yue, this uninvited guest, arrived first.
The old lady and the madam are currently unconscious. If the elders of the gang were to intervene at this moment, the only one who could stand up to them would be their young master.
only--
Their young master has never interfered in the gang's affairs and has no idea how deep the waters run. He's afraid that their young master won't be able to control them.
Their young master was a flower raised in a greenhouse, and they were only told about what the Ning family did after he came of age.
Before that, their young master knew nothing.
After he confessed, although the old lady and the madam hoped that he would inherit the Ning family, they still chose to respect his choice.
When he asked if he wanted to be a star, I agreed without hesitation.
Fearing that someone would find out he was of Ning family blood, he added the character Jiang to his surname Ning.
Outsiders are unaware that besides the wife, the Ning family also has a member named Jiang Ningyuan.
Only a few elders in the gang knew of Jiang Ningyuan's existence.
For example, the person in front of us.
Li Cheng felt a headache coming on when he saw the person in front of him.
If Cheng Yue were willing to stand on their young master's side, those with ulterior motives would definitely be more wary, after all, he is the second-in-command of the gang.
The leaders of other groups changed repeatedly, but Cheng Yue's Yamaguchi group remained the same, with his subordinates only obeying Cheng Yue and the old lady.
Just think about it, how could someone have been the boss for so long without some skills and tricks?
The worst-case scenario is that this second-in-command is also eyeing the top position.
They said they came to visit their young master today, but maybe they're actually here to confirm whether the old lady and madam are truly unconscious, so they can secretly make arrangements and take action.
We must be careful.
"Investigate," Jiang Ningyuan said, his eyes filled with seriousness.
"Yes!" Li Cheng replied.
Even if Jiang Ningyuan didn't say anything, he would definitely investigate thoroughly and find out who spread it!
If he finds out who spread the rumors, he will definitely not let them get away with it!
Cheng Yue looked at Jiang Ningyuan in front of him and squinted, "Young Master, the more I look at you, the more you have the same aura as the boss back then."
Jiang Ningyuan is indeed worthy of being their boss's grandson; his eyes are practically identical to his.
If those old guys saw Jiang Ningyuan now, they definitely wouldn't underestimate him.
At this moment, Cheng Yue actually hoped that those people could come to the Ning family and take a good look at Jiang Ningyuan.
Just as Cheng Yue was thinking, the walkie-talkie clipped to Li Cheng's waist made a crackling sound.
When Li Cheng looked up and saw that the eyes of the people in front of him were all on him, he picked up the walkie-talkie and pressed the button.
"Butler Li, the leaders of the Jingtian Group, Tianyi Group, and Xinglang Group are here." Besides the voices on the walkie-talkie, there were several impatient voices urging them on.
"Let them in," Jiang Ningyuan said calmly.
Cheng Yue raised an eyebrow, seemingly never expecting that one day he would have his wishes fulfilled.
We said we hoped they would come, and they actually did.
"The leaders of several groups have come together. It seems... nothing good is coming."
"Young Master, you must hold on!"
Cheng Yue spoke up, then took out a lollipop from his pocket.
Tear—
Peel off the candy wrapper and put the lollipop in your mouth.
Li Cheng frowned as he looked at Cheng Yue in front of him.
Clearly, this person had no intention of getting involved or helping their young master; they just wanted to watch the show.
However, his interests and hobbies haven't changed over the years...
Everyone else either smokes cigarettes or cigars, but this second-in-command likes to eat lollipops.
He was a man in his forties, with a fierce-looking face, yet he loved eating lollipops.
The old lady had asked him why before, and he only said that his future wife didn't like him smoking, so he quit.
But since then, Cheng Yue has not gotten married and is still single.
Although the Longfeng Gang is a large gang, it is also quite laid-back and has few gang rules.
They have freedom of marriage and freedom of movement; apart from needing to be loyal to the Ning family, they are free in every way.
But--
So many years have passed, and Cheng Yue still hasn't found a partner.
